‘Mooning’ mower facing charge

A Jacksonville man was arrested after reports that he mooned neighbors who asked him to stop mowing yards that weren’t his.

Bradley M. Hayes, 42, of 1005 N. Fayette St. was arrested at 7:50 p.m. Tuesday on a disorderly conduct charge.

Police were called because a man was mowing a yard that was not his property and when residents approached him and asked him to leave, the man stood up, pulled down his pants and exposed his buttocks, according to Jacksonville police Lt. Sean Walker.

The act caused “multiple neighbors to be alarmed and disturbed by [the] actions,” according to a police report.
